    07 Z71 Tahoe ride height and wheel offset

    As much as I hate to do it, I need to lower the Tahoe to make it easier for my wife to load the kids. It currently has a spacer in the front and rear. I want to start with removing the spacers and level the rear. I’m thinking either 20s or 22s. I’d like the wheels to be even with the fender...

    Front suspension refresh

    Is there any real differences in the brands or are they all pretty much the same. eBay has some off brands for $28 and the moog ones run about $55. Off brand https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/233000169893 Moog...

    Front suspension refresh

    I have an 07 Tahoe Z71. The PO installed a top strut spacer and i’d like to remove it and install bilstein 5100 shocks. My question is will I need a new strut mount if they cut the original mounting studs. I also plan setting them at the highest level. TIA.

    4L60E Trans Temps while Towing

    I did all the upgrades at once. Deleted the DOD/AFM and installed the stage 2 .600 lift cam. Not sure i lost any bottom end torque but i do wish it would be better. It pulls really good when i get on it. The tuner adjusted the shift points to help with getting it in the right RPMs when it...

    4L60E Trans Temps while Towing

    4L60E Trans Temps while Towing

    If it consistently sits b/w 200-210 while towing a 5500lb trailer can’t be good. And if it gets to 210 or higher I’d like it to be able to cool quicker.

    4L60E Trans Temps while Towing

    I was just thinking if you have 210 degree water flowing through the radiator then how much could it really cool the trans fluid.

    4L60E Trans Temps while Towing

    I have an 07 Tahoe 5.3L AFM/DOD deleted with stage 2 TS cam. Circle D 2600 300mm converter. I installed an aftermarket cooler and when towing my camper I'm still getting temps close to 210. If I were to bypass the factory cooler in the radiator would it help keep the temps down.

    Engine Issues after deleting DOD/AFM on rebuilt engine

    No vids. It’s running good. I’ve put about 5k miles on it so far and I’ve towed three trailers. One weighing about 5500 lbs. The exhaust it a little loud but t sounds mean. Averaging around 12-13 mpg.

    Do I need to delete AFM?

    I just went down this same road. If you just bought it, drive it for a while and keep an eye on oil consumption. If it doesn’t burn oil then just leave it. I was burning to much oil for my liking and decided to delete AFM. When I got down to the short block I ended up pulling it and having it...
